Die katastrophale Agrarpolitik der Europäischen Union

Während die Europäische Union aggressiv ihre Politik der Null-Emissionen verfolgt, angetrieben von leidenschaftlichen Umweltaktivisten und einem unnachgiebigen Fokus auf den Klimawandel, werden die Auswirkungen auf ihren Agrarsektor katastrophal. In Kombination mit hohen Löhnen, drückenden Steuern und drakonischen Vorschriften zwingen diese Politiken eine beispiellose Anzahl von Bauernhöfen in die Insolvenz und Schließung. Das Rückgrat der Nahrungsmittelproduktion der EU bricht zusammen, was zu einem meteoritischen Anstieg der Lebensmittelpreise und der Inflation führt, der zu einer katastrophalen Lebensmittelknappheit führen könnte. Die einzige mögliche Rettung könnte in einer erhöhten Einfuhr von frischem Obst aus Asien, insbesondere aus Thailand und Malaysia, liegen. Politik der Null-Emissionen: Ein [...]

Les politiques agricoles catastrophiques de l’Union européenne

Alors que l'Union européenne poursuit agressivement sa politique de zéro émission, poussée par des activistes écologistes fervents et un accent inflexible sur le changement climatique, les répercussions sur son secteur agricole deviennent catastrophiques. Combinées à des salaires élevés, des impôts oppressifs et des réglementations draconiennes, ces politiques forcent un nombre sans précédent de fermes à la faillite et à la fermeture. La colonne vertébrale de la production alimentaire de l'UE s'effondre, entraînant une augmentation fulgurante des prix des aliments et de l'inflation qui pourrait conduire à une pénurie alimentaire catastrophique. Le seul salut potentiel pourrait résider dans une augmentation des importations [...]

The European Union’s Catastrophic Policies on Agriculture

As the European Union aggressively pursues its zero-emissions policy, driven by fervent green activists and an unyielding focus on climate change, the repercussions on its agricultural sector are becoming catastrophic. Combined with high wages, oppressive taxes, and draconian regulations, these policies are forcing an unprecedented number of farms into bankruptcy and closure. The backbone of the EU's food production is collapsing, resulting in a meteoric rise in food prices and inflation that could lead to a catastrophic food shortage. The only potential salvation may lie in increased food imports from Africa and Asia. Zero Emissions Policy: A Double-Edged Sword The EU's [...]

Mango Prices in the U.S. Hit Unprecedented Levels

The U.S. relies on mango imports primarily from South America during the winter months. Mango production in Peru and Ecuador has been significantly impacted by the El Niño phenomenon, which led to elevated temperatures during the critical flowering stage and thereby exerted a detrimental effect on overall yields. A compounding factor exacerbating the challenges faced by the Peruvian mango industry is the decline in production within the Áncash region which has caused significant economic losses within the sector, as reported by the Service for Comprehensive Rural Development (Sedir). Furthermore, the escalation in cultivation input costs, soaring by 200%, has added an [...]

War in Ukraine Pushes Food Prices to Record High: FAO

The U.N.'s food price index rose to 159.3 in March, up 17.9 points, or 13%, from February and jumped 34% from a year ago. The index measures the monthly change in international prices for a basket of [...]
